Boston Creative Jazz Scene 1970 - 1983 , released on Cultures Of Soul Records in 2016

...In the 1970s Boston was a fertile ground for a very creative jazz scene. Small, independent venues ranging from lofts to churches to clubs opened up to support this thriving backdrop while jazz musicians set up their own labels...The music on this album is culled from rare private press Jazz LPs that were pressed in small quantities of a few hundred for members of the band and the local jazz community at the time. The music here runs the gamut of funky jazz from Arnie Cheatham's 'Thing' to the deep free jazz of the Phill Musra Group or the spoken word brilliance of Worlds, to the complex metric structures of Stanton Davis' 'Play Sleep.' This is a collection of very rare eccentric jazz pieces for your enjoyment!
